Correct answer: B). Mostly absorbed and transmitted toward Earth's surface

The infrared radiation coming from the sun reaches the earth's surface and it warms up the earth's surface. It emits back some of the infrared radiation some of it is absorbed by the gases present in the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide. It is called as greenhouse effect.

If it does not occur then the radiation coming from the earth would be powerful enough to burn skin.

Describe how living things use anaerobic respiration to generate energy.
Mrac [35]
Anaerobic respiration is the process by which some organisms produce energy in the absence of oxygen. Instead of oxygen, organic and inorganic molecules are used as electron acceptors. One example of anaerobic respiration is fermentation.
In latic acid fermentation, one molecule of glucose undergoes glycolysis to produce two molecules of pyruvate. The two molecules of pyruvate then undergo fermentation to produce two molecules of lactate. The lactate will be transported to the liver. The lactate can be reconverted to pyruvate and utilized for energy. Latic acid fermentation occurs in the muscles.

Colchicine is a toxin that binds to tubulin proteins and prevents microtubules from elongating. What effect might this have on d
lianna [129]

The effect Colchicine might have on dividing cells is that the duplicated chromosomes might not be able to segregate into daughter nuclei.

Colchicine is an alkaloid that attaches to tubulin and prevents it from polymerization to microtubules. As we know that Microtubules are a component of the cytoskeleton of a cell that aids in molecular mobility inside the cell.

During cell division, chromatin condenses into chromosomes, which are then connected to microtubules. The chromosomes are separated into daughter cells by microtubules.

When these cells are treated with colchicine, tubulin polymerization to microtubules may not occur, and the chromosomes containing daughter nucleic might not be separated.

Why are scientists interested in the origin of organic molecules?<br><br> help me please...
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Gas from Earth's core came to the surface through volcanoes.

Recent hypotheses about the origin of organic molecules suggest that these molecules may have formed in hydrothermal vents deep in the oceans, where hot gases and elements emerge from cracks in Earth's crust.
